Aiming to upscale the experience when it comes to playing card decks, the Apothecary card decks are outfitted with the ability to change color when interacted with.
Funding now on Kickstarter, the Apothecary cards are designed with a mystical aesthetic that sees no point of detail untouched. Each card is finished with silver foil that helps to provide a texturized feeling, while also enabling the cards to catch the light and reflect.
Unlike any cards out there, the Apothecary playing card decks are crafted from linen texture stock and are coated with a premium finish that enable them to change color. Metallic gold ink is used throughout the collection of cards to make them look like a deck fit for a king.
